Judging Is Wrong “Who are you to judge the life I live?I know I’m not perfect-and I don’t live to be-but before you start pointing fingers...make sure you hands are clean!”- Bob Marley What do we do when we meet a new person?

It may be surprising to learn that the first rap song to bring the genre to a wide mainstream audience wasn’t even originally a rap song. By every definition‚ “Walk This Way”‚ written in 1975 by Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and Joe Perry‚ was your classic rock song.
